His insights also include simple daily foot-massage techniques that can help relieve pain and support long-term foot health. Quotes to ponder: "Plantar fasciitis is a fancy way of saying that there's inflammation happening in the foot in a specific area of the foot." "Across the bottom of the foot we have this long band of connective tissue that's referred to as fascia. This fascia or connective tissue connects the heel to the toe." "When it comes to finding an appropriate shoe the keys are comfort first and heel support second."
